Advanced Materials for Weapon Systems

Abstract

This program develops and demonstrates advanced materials and process technologies to satisfy Department of the Air Force requirements in areas such as survivability, readiness, affordability, and new processes and materials. These projects ensure the Department of the Air Force weapon systems are ready and able when needed. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver science and technology capabilities. The use of program funds in this PE would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0601102F, 0602020F, 0602102F, 0602201F, 0602202F, 0602203F, 0602204F, 0602602F, 0602605F, 0602788F, 1206601SF, and 0602298F. This program element may include necessary expenses to support the operation and maintenance of facilities to manage, execute, and deliver science and technology capabilities. This program is in Budget Activity 3, Advanced Technology Development because this budget activity includes development of subsystems and components and efforts to integrate subsystems and components into system prototypes for field experiments and/or tests in a simulated environment.
